Mike,
Well, it doesn't have too much appeal as just a platter... it would have to
be at least a disk pack, not just a single platter. Of course, the entire
drive would be the best thing.

Do any of the Bryant drives still exist though? From what this guy tells me
they were huge with hydrolic actuators.

They were certainly hydraulic; I remember the drive at LBL weeping what looked
like mil-5606. Used to mop it up with cat litter.
No idea if any still exist. It'd be a little like finding an intact
IBM MSS system somewhere...
